Pros: Works flawlessly in my Acer Aspire 9300-5415. Increase in speed over the DDR2 533 that came in the notebook.

Cons: Haven't found any.

Overall Review: This is a great product at a great price, but especially good if you catch it with a rebate.

Good but not great

Western Digital WD TV HD Media Player WDAVN00BN

Pros: Automatically reads the files on the USB drive(s). Easy to connect and use. I encode to .mp4 (H.264) and the WD player reproduces everything wonderfully, the videos look as good as the original DVD image.

Cons: Even though the OPTIONS menu has AUDIO (which lists the audio stream you are using), the firmware does not allow you to select the secondary audio stream. I emailed WD and they told me they had no plans to update the firmware to allow it either. This is a very poor decision by WD and one that I wish I had known about prior to purchasing. I don't understand why they would have the OPTIONS-AUDIO button there, unless they were going to include this ability.

Overall Review: Update the firmware as soon as you get it. Email WD and ask about the secondary audio stream capability being added in the next firmware. Maybe they will get the point if enough people ask.

Now I know why it was so cheap

Pros: Couldn't find any pros. Couldn't leave less than an overall one rating.

Cons: Does not work. Tried it with two different TVs and two different DVI cables (both cables brand new). No signal to either TV.

Overall Review: Will return this for refund.
